I was there, it was because of the double weekend imo. Last year a friend or mine could get in for unwound, gilla and Yves without any problem. In 2022 it would have been a 3 h cue Edited January 18 by Whos3000_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whos3000_ Posted January 18 Report Share Posted January 18 (edited) Did anyone go to Julia holter last year? I wanted to but I eventually chose sparks. Weird timing for booking her, given she will be dropping a new record this year Edited January 18 by Whos3000_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2022 it would have been a 3 h cue I agree but you don't have 3 hour queues without some interest in the Ciutat concept. Julia Holter was alright last year - she's is a bit of a subdued performer these days for my tastes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I checked the price and it's the same price as Primavera, so it's a very good lineup for the price. Only problem that I would have is that the biggest artists are all very indie and guitar music, I think that Primavera has a bit more variety for my taste, but overall, this and Primavera are the best lineups of the year so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whos3000_ Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 bit of a off-topic but I just feel like I want to get in the mood. favourite 5 moments from these last years of the "new"/bigger primavera, anyone (let's say 2018/2019-now)? Something that stood the test of time for you. I'll start: - Pavement 2022, after waiting for 3 years - Nick Cave 2018 (maybe the loverman bit) - Unwound 2023, because it was amazing from start to finish - Rosalia 2023 maybe? Definitely felt like a victory lap as well as a set she cared about - Low 2022, sunset set: we know why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler the Creator W1 2022 - Amazing 1 man performance and great setlist from start to finish. Idles 2022 - They seemed to really enjoy performing, gave so much energy and the crowd was brilliant. Nas 2019 - Maybe I can pick some better PS performances but seeing my favourite childhood rapper at a stage as small (relative to his stature) as the RayBan was special for me. New Order 2023 - In their old age I didn’t expect much and it blew me away. Favourite set of 2023. The Smile 2022 - Goosebumps. Sound was incredible and my first time seeing Thom and Johnny perform.

I love Primavera so much for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I wasn't so tempted 🙂 It's even pricy to take a flight to Utah even if you are in the USA during that week. Domestic flights in USA are very expensive. You can still see all of the headliners and most of the undercard in Europe if you go to Primavera and MEO Kalorama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
